Out of the Ashes
Out of the Ashes is book 14 in M. J. Arlidge’s DI Helen Grace series. This time, the case is personal from the start. Helen’s best friend is fighting for her life, and the man responsible has fled the country before Helen could get to him. The trail leads to Rotterdam, where Helen is far away from home. Now she is searching in a city where the criminal world already knows how to protect its own people. The local police are very helpful to outsiders either, so Helen is left to chasing a fugitive with very few people she can trust. And with trained killers following her every move, this becomes a case that goes beyond just finding the attacker anymore. Helen may have to decide how far she is willing to go for justice.
